Beta program - Schedule

Hi Frank and Ben,

 

It seems that VESCs 6 are now sold by Trampa to non-beta users.

So, what's the plan now for betas ? Is the beta program over ? I'm a bit confused, sorry.

Should we still go for some special requests of testing ?

Or, if the beta is over, could you publish all files and code (as it was the deal at the beginning of this beta program) ?

 

Thanks to both of you for the great job !

 

Cheers,

 

Clément

hi

ich have the same problems like @rich.

The Motors are cogging when starting in offroad conditions, slightly uphill only cogging, no start up is possible.
On flat concrete nice start up with slight cogging.

My Motors are 118kv Trampa and  runnig in FOC sensored.

After my last tour i print the Faultcodes of both Vesc6 and the Motor config. 

All Files are at my onedrivefolder

PPM: Full Duty-Cycle at approx. 15% Throttle

I'm using the VESC 6 Beta with 118kv Trampa Motor (FOC, sensorless) on a Street Carver Board. I control via PPM (using rc car equipment). The problem being that i get full duty cycle already at very low throttle position. This especially noticeable when testing without load. Suprisingly enough driving the board was sort of OK (at least @22V). Will still have to test @44V. Nevertheless the effect was still there: I reach full speed with hardly any pull on the throttle. What can I do about it?

It seems I cannot add images, so here's a Link to the photo:

Foc Mode: high revs causing unusual behaviour

Hi,

the wiring of the regulator went well so I did a test drive with my scooter yesterday.

With load the motor spins up nicely most of the time and torques it's way to the desired speed.

When I reach top speed the motor starts rumbling and stuttering and i have to start from zero again... what can be the cause for that?

Do I have to shield the cables to avoid interferences maybe?

 

Can't connect to slave vesc via master usb in vesc-tool -SOLVED-

Hey there,

i'm using dual HW 4.12 with FW 3.26, i have no access to the slave vesc when the usb cable is connected to the master vesc.
after clicking the CAN button in vesc-tool and clicking "connect" i get this error message:
"Could not read firmware version. Make sure that selected port really belongs to the VESC.

I don't know if this is a bug of vesc-tool or if i'm doing something wrong.

New motor....

Hi, 

A friend has built his own BLDC motor... he wants me to make it spin, so I've gotten out the VESC6 to try to make it spin... 

 

All it does is make noises. During FOC-detection it spins on the second attempt. But somehow the firmware decides not to trust it spinning. On BLDC detection I haven't been able to get it to spin. Neither in BLDC-mode, Just commanding a duty cycle or current makes it shake a bit but not spin.
